Good stuff!

It's from his book: God Is Not Great.

Interesting one sided view .

If at first you succeed...try something harder.

Do not let silence become your legacy.. Question everything
I renounced my faith to become a kafir,
the beloved betrayed me and turned in to a Muslim

He makes a great number of points

One that stood out was a out the Bible not being translated in to other languages. From earliest available manuscripts they are in Hebrew Scriptures in Hebrew but Greek Scriptures also in Aramaic and Greek. I think very wearily on in other languages as well. The Bible itself as one of the miracles in 33 CE Jevovah caused the disciples of Jesus to be able to speak other languages to be a le to witness to the people who had come from other land to Jerusalem. That is the Scriptural prinical for translating the Bible and leading other lanaguge to teach people the Bible in their native language. Also the is the way to new that the Catholic church leaders were wrong for centuries by not making the Bible available in the language of the people.

If at first you succeed...try something harder.
